Hmm, I am not sure I follow? So do you or do you not want cryptsetup
ask for passwrds via the ask-password agent stuff?

I initially thought you don't, but now you do?

Or do you want to filter stuff, i.e. that
systemd-ask-password-agent-tty only does its thing if asked for some
passwords, but not for others?

if that's what you want, let's take a step back, what are you actually
trying to do? Can you describe your scenario better?
